The man is deceased. Show some respect. And some taste, while you're at it.

As a Gator and a music fan, I soured on Petty after seeing the androgynous tranny looking fella in one of his music videos. I'd prefer they played that Swamp...Swamp...Swamp...Swamp Music by Sknyrd at Gators games like how I blast that song out my car windows on gamedays, haha. Those boys from Westside Jacksonville weren't far from Gainesville.

if UF loves him so much and he was so connected to UF why did they wait 30 yrs to start playing his song at the Swamp?

Agree. He has one of those turn the channel voices. He wasn't good in the 70's and he still isn't good. I hated when one of his songs played on the radio when I would drive to HS every morning. I turned the channel every time.

Isn't he in the rock n roll HOF? Isn't he a multi-millionaire because of his music(mainly from Frat boys)..you may not like him but he def doesn't suck.

You really gotta respect someone who can make an entire career out of playing simple 3 chord songs repeatedly.

A lot of his music really doesn’t hold up when you listen to it today. Very mediocre recording artist.


What age are you, OP? 90, or 4 ??

It’s actually impressive - the genius of simplicity.
